Question

Choose the best option to complete the given sentence:
Roy _______ two books this year with a new publisher.

• A. get along
• B. brought out
• C. brought up
• D. drew on

Answer 1

The correct option is B brought out

Phrasal verbs are phrases, formed with a verb and a preposition or an adverb. The meaning thus formed is different from its literal meaning.
Option B: 'Brought out' is a phrasal verb that means 'to produce or release a new product and start to sell it'. It agrees with the given sentence, that 'Roy released two books...with a new publisher.' Hence option B is correct.
Option A: 'Get along' means 'to make progress in something'. The meaning doesn't quite fit into the sentence.
Option C: 'Brought up' means 'to look after a child until he/she becomes an adult', 'to raise a child'.
Option D: 'Drew on' as a phrasal verb means 'to use something that you have gradually gained or saved'.
These phrasal verbs do not give a relevant meaning to the given sentence.
Hence options A, C and D are incorrect.
